Thanks for the info. I'll give it a look. And then figure out how to
change over the GUI environment. Oh well, that's why it's great it installs
in only about 15 minutes now that I have done it a couple of times!! :)

While recompiling the kernal might gain a fraction of
a handfull of extra cpu cycles you most likely will
not knowtice any diffrence in the speed of kde. by
default kde/gnome/other "desktop environments" will
put a lot of strain on a lighter weight system. I
would sugest if you don't have the horse power try a
lighter window manager and don't use a "desktop environment"
some of my suggestions would be: Window Maker or FVMW
there are many others. I think there was a windowmanagers.org
site that had a list of several.
have fun
